Hello!
I built my PC in April 2020 and had zero issues until February 2021. I am running Windows 10 Pro Version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.804).
Build Details:
The fans and their RGBs in the case all light up and turn on like normal, but nothing else happens. Usually it takes exactly two power cycles (holding down power button to turn off, then hitting again to turn on - do that twice) and then it will boot normally from what I can tell. I haven't noticed any other issues with performance other than one crash with blue screen recently (I think it was related to Adobe software I use for photo/video-editing...?) but I'd like to address this one in case it is a symptom of a larger problem. I also haven't identified much of a pattern of when this occurs.
I posted over on the Win10 forums a few months ago since I thought it was related to the Windows update. Some recommended it was a RAM problem. I re-seated the RAM and didn't have this happen for a few weeks, thought that fixed it. Then it started happening again and has been doing it for the last ~2 weeks, maybe every other day? Debating buying new RAM or even a motherboard or both, but just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem or any other ideas on what might be wrong.
Appreciate any help or advice in advance! <3
